What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[jaxman7]

Have been lurking for a while. Purchased a 2003 2WD Tahoe last November and slowly getting some mods done. Last week I bought a set of 2014 Silverado Z71 wheels and had a chance over the weekend to get them painted. Other things done to this day:

-Suburban LTZ lower valance painted black
-Grill painted black
-Truck debadged

-Jax

Well, the 3m tape of these door handle buckets isn't even and not thick enough, so they're not staying put.
The grille needs to continue to cure probably for the next 3-4 days. Then I'm going to wetsand, then hit it with another coat of clear, but here's a pic ad promised. Just threw the grille on just now

Truck was running a tad hot. When it cooled, I added a gallon of distilled to it. Couldn't find any obvious leaks and the water pump/hoses/t-stat were replaced in December 2014 (15k miles ago). Fearing Caster Head issue, took it back to the place that put the pump in. Small leak spotted on upper rad hose where it feeds the pump inlet. Crisis averted.

Probably could have seen it myself had I let it get to temp and checked, but fearing the worst, I just went straight to the shop less than two miles away and it held temp fine. Clamped the hose again and will keep an eye on it.

Odd. I didn't have much trouble with it.

its @ the firewall. Exhaust manifold is in the way a bit so you are flying blind.

Honestly it only took me a few minutes more than any of the others. A handful of various extensions and a swivel made it pretty simple.

Nothing if you have the hands of a 6 yr old, and skin tougher than cowhide, because the A/C pan is sharp as F**k!

I just bought a 1" extension, heard that's the trick along with a swivel. I guess I'll see.
